You may be able to get around it by using your own DSDT table. But you need the correct table for your machine. See http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php I am not sure if putting a DSDT in initrd.img is covered there, or somewhere else, but it is possible. From my /var/log/dmesg: Checking 'hlt' instruction... OK. ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initrd... not found.
